Problems with gdb IRIX and signals

[avasile@csc.com.au]

I'm trying to debug a program under IRIX 6.5 and when I attach to an
already running program once I type cont
there is to way to interrupt the program under test. The code hits the
breakpoints I set but there is no way to interrupt the program.

Versions are gdb 5.3 and gcc 2.8.1 - not quite state of the art but I've
tried to compile later version with this ancient toolset but have had no
joy and have given up.

Yours
Tony Vasile
